He said on Wednesday he would cooperate fully with the authorities, but declined to answer media questions linked to reports that he was a VIP guest at MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas on four occasions.After his interrogation that lasted more than 12 hours, he was released at around 10.20pm.The police are set to question Yang Hyun-suk, former head of YG Entertainment which manages BigBang, on Thursday .
